[Dovecot] Experimental FreeBSD ports / packages for test61
Hello, If anyone would like it I have provided a Dovecot 1.0 test61 port and package for FreeBSD 5.3 here. I made them for my own experimentation but thought they might be interesting to others I suppose. http://www.helenmarks.co.uk/~dom/dovecot/ These deviate from the stock test61 because I've updated and added a patch I wrote a long time ago for ioloop kqueue/kevent support in Dovecot. I have no configure skill at all so you get it even if you don't choose it in the options dialogue. It seems to work still, I tested it very lightly, but I don't use day to day, so YMMV. To use the shar file: gzip -d <path/to/dovecot.shar.gz> shar <path/to/dovecot.shar> cd dovecot make install To use the package: pkg_add -r http://www.helenmarks.co.uk/~dom/dovecot/dovecot-1.0-test61.tbz Cheers, -- Dominic

Nice work!
